-Caveat Lector- ~~~~~~~~~~~~ A<>E<>R The only real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes. -Marcel Proust ---------- : Subject: Happy Hanukkah! : Date: Monday, December 14, 1998 8:36 PM : : Dear Friends: : : Tonight is the second night of Hanukkah, the Jewish "festival of lights". : This holiday occurs at the darkest time of the year, and among other : things, reminds us that even when things seem darkest, there is hope. On : the first night of Hanukkah, we light one candle - one tiny candle of light : against the darkness. But on the second day, we light two candles, and on : the third day, three candles, culminating in eight candles on the last day. : The message, although subtle, is clear. Even one candle dispels darkness, : but we have the obligation to add a little more light to the world each day. : : Our nation is also facing some rather dark days, and I believe the story of : Hanukkah contains important messages for all of us - Jews, non-Jews, and : atheists alike. And so I have reposted my column on Hanukkah from last : year, for those of you who have joined "The Righter" within the last year, : and those of you who would like to reread it. You can find this article on : my web page (http://www.therighter.com) under "Columns" or "New", or by : going directly to http://www.therighter.com/column/Hanukkah.html. : : *************************************************************** : : Thanks to all of you who are helping with the campaign to stop gun control : at the Olympics. As a result of your efforts, the word is really beginning : to spread. Special thanks to the following sites which are mirroring the : article: : : SpinTech magazine, http://www.spintechmag.org : : Women Against Gun Control, http://www.wagc.com/index0.html (look for the : button on the left which says "2002 Olympics Boycott") : : I recommend both sites highly, so please check them out. : : Thanks also to the many newsletters and mailing lists which have posted the : article. : : It has become apparent to me that I cannot keep up with posting all new : information and updates to my web site, or to be more exact, that the : webhack is overwhelmed! So, as soon as my ISP gets it set up, I will be : starting a new mailing list for updates and discussion of gun control and : the Olympics. I had hoped to have the subscription information available : to include in this note, but it's taking a bit longer to get it set up. : When the information is available, I will let you know. Please also check : my web site (http://www.therighter.com) for news and updates. The Olympics : list will be completely separate from this list, and you may subscribe to : either one, or both. No one will be added to the Olympics list by me - you : will have to subscribe yourself. Details to follow, I hope sometime this : week. : : If you have received a response to a letter to any legislators, sponsors, : media people, Olympic officials, or anyone else relating to this issue, and : are willing to share the responses, please forward them to me, or feel free : to post them to the list when it's up and running. : : Coming soon: One Day of Peace? : : Best wishes to all of you for a very Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, : Joyous Solstice, Peaceful Ramadan, or whatever else you choose to celebrate : at this time of year! Thank you for your continued friendship and support! : : Sarah : : : Sarah Thompson, M.D. : http://www.therighter.com : KD7DBP : : Subscribe to "The Righter", a monthly column focusing on : civil liberties and individual action. : To subscribe send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the : message subscribe righter-list in the BODY of the message. : : To obtain my PGP keys, send a blank message to : [EMAIL PROTECTED] and the keys will be : sent to you by return e-mail. : ------------- : To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] : with the line unsubscribe righter-list in the body.
